SEPARATION by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: WITHIN YOUR PULSING DAY
Last Line: PRAY GOD YOU NEVER KNOW!
Subject(s): ABSENCE; SEPARATION; ISOLATION;

Within your pulsing day
There must be little space
For visions of my face
To lure your thoughts away.

Yet, I would have it so,
To bear alone the pain
That saddens love's refrain.
Pray God you never know!
